The zoo in a Monday tweet announced its female aardvark, Ali, welcomed a 3-pound baby boy on Thursday.

Peace on Earth! Ali the aardvark and her 4-day-old baby boy will spend the holidays cuddling and bonding behind the scenes. The newborn is doing well and weighs a little over three pounds, which is in the normal range for this species. #AadorableAardvarkpic.twitter.com/uARdp2SVmE
